Best find yet...

My most desired lens. The 12-24mm wide angle, from Nikon. This lens was the first of the DX line. Bringing forth a specialized line of lenses for the newer, smaller imagining sensors of the current DSLRs. Great wide angle, and superb quality. I've been dying for a quality wide angle for a while. I didn't expect to end up with the 12-24 last weekend though! A great Craigslist find for sure!

 This lens new is in the $1200 range, and I got it with a Hoya UV filter (attached since day 1) for $520!!!! This thing is in perfect condition! The guy I bought it from seemed like a great trust-worthy guy. This was the best deal I've found yet! Easily one of the best weekends I've ever had!

 Jessica bought her brothers late 08 MacBook Pro for $500, and we sold her early 08 for $600!!! I also sold my car, which is very exciting! I got JUST what I needed from it too. I didn't give in to some crap offer, or settle for a measly "trade in deal".

I'm very happy right now. I've been feeling VERY crafty for the past few days, but I'll fill you in on those details later! (with pictures, of course!)

I went out and played with Floyd while getting a feel for the newest, and most cherished addition to my gear...

I love the attitude in this one.

What a chill pup he is.



That's my Floyd.
